I hear what you’re saying, but we’re not talking about a single-mother sneaking diapers out because she needs them or a Jean Valjean-type taking bread because they’re hungry…

This is OCR (Organized Retail Theft) where a team of 3+ people coordinate with phones, distractions, and a driver, to quickly get as many high-dollar, shelf-stable items out of a store as possible to resell on Facebook marketplace/eBay/etc. It’s typically at least $1000 per store.

If you hate large organizations, you should hate the greed of criminal rings like this, because we all absolutely pay more because of it…

EDIT: I’m just talking about what the article is referring to. I’m not saying companies don’t pass the costs on to consumers, and I’m not casting moral judgement.

We spell it different too!? I literally thought it was spelled “aluminum” the world over! My opinion may do a 180 on this one…

But there’s not another vowel between the ‘n’ and the ‘u’, why would you pronounce it “AL-yoo-MINI-um”!?

It’s similar to people who pronounce nuclear “nuke-yoo-lar”, those extra letters just aren’t in the word!

Yeah, and they also said “the API isn’t going anywhere”. Liars and cowards…

If people are looking for alternatives that won’t be shut down, you… recommend they look to Google!? Ahahahahaha!

I’m not quite sure what your point is, but they aren’t “two different markets”.

Sure, one is a (mostly) subscription model, but at the end of the day, they’re both digital Elder Scrolls games sold by the same publisher.

What am I doing? Anything but pooping. But seriously, apparently I’m going to be eating a lot of protein and minimal fiber…

HAhahahahahaha, that’s a good one!

It’s like talking to a toddler: “My feelings are more important than anything, I have no impulse-control! Ahhhhhh!”
